Default Pointer for shift indicator

My '77 doesn't have a pointer for shift indicator but the AIM manual shows one...did they come on all cars for that year? (I haven't taken it apart yet to see if any or all of that assembly is missing).
My 1974 didn't have one either

74's never had a pointer, but as others have pointed out, your 77 should.

Take the side panels off and look inside, thats where I found the shift indicator on the 77 I bought back in 1986. never did reinstall it and ended up sending it to a Forum member about 2yrs ago.

Didn't notice mine was missing until I took the shifter console apart and looked at my AIM. Bought one from Willcox and installed it when I put it all back together.
